If anything, the ride improved. The suspension has less weight to manage over the bumps, so the oscillation occurs faster and is more easily controlled. Perhaps it was a placebo effect, but I recall the car feeling more nimble. I would highly recommend these to anyone thinking about them... the finish is very close to the OEM SRT-6 wheel, with the machined face and silver painted windows. If you can get them, get the 19x9.5 +25mm offset. I was in a rush and had to settle for +35mm offset, and always felt the rear needed spacers to make the car look more "stable".

Aside from that, zero complaints. You WILL need a good premium wheel brush that can snake between the spokes... the spacing between the spokes is too small to allow a hand to pass through. The $20 brush on Autogeek would be perfect.

Negative, ghost rider.
